WOMEN'S MOVEMENT KEY ISSUES IN
CHALLENGING TIMES
Development Alternatives with Women
for a New Era
First released by DAWN in early
2010, highly relevant in 2012 as:
*DAWN calls for challenging global
ecoomic institutions and for feminists to reclaim governance through
alternative visions.
*Where is the place for social
reproduction in the new world and how do we redistribute resources and
opportunities? How do we put an end to the production and reproduction of
inequallities by neoliberal policies?
*The gendered impacts of the global
crises have been raised under this political context that impringes upon the
time burdens of women, that women absorb care burdens even more as market-based
services or public services become less accessible, higher unemployment rates,
or women increasingly being marginalized into the informal sector, or worsening
work conditions.....
*Militarization is integrally linked
to systematic violence and together with armed conflict and civil war has
played a major role in shaping and changing women's lives. As violent
conflict kills, maims and destroys peoples, economies, and livelihoods,
development goals and achievements are reversed in climates of insecurity.
